Hi Guys,

I've installed OpenEMM on my desktop; Windows XP, and I think its working fine too, but still struggling ... couldn't sent a single email.

Can any one please help/assist in this regard.
What I'm missing everything seems to be working, but ...

Anxiously waiting to hear back.
Best regards.

Is there a mailserver installed on your xp machine?
Most of your targetmailservers will not accept your emails, if you send them right from your ip instead of an domain.

No, I don't think so, basically would like to know, what needs to be done, to make it workable, have done setup.bat -> asked 2 times pwd, and then start.bat, looks good, but none of the emails are going out, or should not getting any emails, because for testing purpose; sending it to myself.

Please if possible, tell me the specific steps, that needs to be corrected or updated some where ... in the files.

Thanks, and greatly appreciate your help.
Best regards.

sorry missed one thing, I'm using smtp.1and1.com
and my email address: abc@domain.com:pwd

in the config file too, is this correct, or if just tell me the steps ... that'll be very helpful.

I never tried to setup OpenEMM in a windows environment. So I am not familiar with the steps of the installation.

And I dont know whether you can / should use a relay mailserver with OpenEMM without have installed a local one.

Logfiles of a local mailserver could help you to find out whether the emails are sent, dropped, bounced or whatever.
